“…stripper, or post stripper, was installed at the 3/4 terminal potential point in the dead section between tube sections 5 and 6 in the high energy end of the accelerator. The initial performance of the post stripper both with terminal gas and foil stripping has been reported elsewhere [19,20]. Over the last year of operation, dual-foil stripping has been used extensively for many différent heavy ions and has greatly extended the performance capability of the facility, as will be described in more detail in section IV on accelerator performance.…”
